OPERATION
4.6.7 Draper S
peed
Draper speed affects the orientation of stalks in the windrow. For more information refer to your header operator’s
manual for guidelines.
The draper speed can be set to run independently, or relative to the ground speed of the windrower with the header
index function.
Setting Draper to Ground Speed
Setting the speed of the draper relative to g round speed (using the header index function) allows you to run the
engine at lower rpm while maintaining the desired ground and draper speed. Reducing engine speed saves fuel
and reduces noise in the cab.
Setting draper to ground speed requires setting both the minimum draper speed and the draper index.
